Usirikaya beside Curd Rice
ఉసిరికాయ — పెరుగన్నం పక్కన
Usirikaya is already cooked in salt, chilli and pacchi nune. Do not fry it again. A traditional plate is hot rice, a little mudda pappu, and usirikaya on the side. It also belongs with perugannam in the evening, when the sour fruit makes the curd taste cleaner.
Use a dry spoon. In humid weather keep the jar in the fridge and take out only what you will eat, so the cold oil is not going in and out all day. Elders in Guntur take a small piece at the end of a rich meal, not a heap at the start.
